Glomangiopericytoma of the sinonasal tract (formerly known as hemangiopericytoma) is a rare soft tissue tumor with a perivascular myoid phenotype. It accounts for 1 percent of all vascular tumors. Herein, it is our pleasure to report that in 2006, we, Head & Neck Surgeons at King Faisal Specialist Hospital & Research Center in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, had the opportunity to contribute to the curative management of a 22-year-old patient, a registered nurse who presented with a 6-month history of recurrent minor spontaneous epistaxis and her clinical, radiological and histopathological assessment confirmed that this was due to a left maxillary glomangiopericytoma. The patient underwent angioembolization followed by left maxillectomy. The patient has been followed up closely until a local recurrence had been discovered and was managed with local surgical resection and adjuvant radiotherapy. Since then, the patient has been free from her malignant disease and is following up regularly with no evidence of metastasis or recurrence.
